We just took a road trip to Alabama. During the trip a rock hit our windshield putting a nice little bullseye crack in it. We went to get it fixed, and the place that repaired it was right across the street from this restaurant. How convenient! But I’ve been eyeing this place for some time.… Continue reading Los Tres Amigos, Harvey, LA Report #591

I love Mexican food. I was searching the internet for a new place to try and came upon this joint. After checking out the menu, a few unique and interesting dishes caught my eye, so we decided to pop in. Since my iPhone photography isn’t the best, and you probably can’t read the menu in… Continue reading Mucho Mas Mexican Eatery and Lounge, New Orleans, LA Report #560
Don Jose’s Grill, Kenner, LA Report #546
This place is located at the corner of a major intersection in Kenner. Catty-cornered from it is a great Italian place called the Brick Oven Cafe.

Besides that, I’ve driven… Continue reading Don Jose’s Grill, Kenner, LA Report #546
La Tia Taqueria & Cantina, Metairie, LA Report #533
In Spanish “La Tia” means the aunt. See the things you learn reading these reports? If you didn’t know any Spanish when you woke up today, now you do! I heard this place had a rather unique menu. Not your typical Tex-Mex kind of food. I love different. Couldn’t wait to get out here and… Continue reading La Tia Taqueria & Cantina, Metairie, LA Report #533
La Patrona, New Orleans, LA Report #518
We had no plans on coming here today. I have a credit card attached to the Marriot hotel chain. They send me emails featuring certain restaurants, and I get points for hotel stays if I dine in those places. One of those restaurants was the place in the last picture above. A Mexican place called… Continue reading La Patrona, New Orleans, LA Report #518
Espiritu, New Orleans, LA Report #506
I was perusing restaurants online and this one got some pretty good reviews. It’s described as a, “Breezy, bohemian-style hangout serving Mexican classics like tacos & tortas, plus mezcal & tequila”. I had no idea what “bohemian-style” was, but it sounded good to me! So we came on in. Nice looking little place. I had… Continue reading Espiritu, New Orleans, LA Report #506

Las Cazuelas, Harvey, LA Report #462
We had some business to take care of in Harvey today, and as happens pretty often, I got hungry. STARVING in fact! I wasn’t far a baked potato joint called The Spud Spot, and one of their huge, seafood stuffed potatoes sounded like a great idea. So we headed on over. Unfortunately, there was a… Continue reading Las Cazuelas, Harvey, LA Report #462
Los Compadres, Gretna, LA Report #403
The city of New Orleans is split in two by the Mississippi River. We refer to the two areas as the Eastbank and the Westbank. A lot of people from the Eastbank don’t like to go to the Westbank. Some actually look down on Westbankers! Well, I was born and raised on the Eastbank. I… Continue reading Los Compadres, Gretna, LA Report #403
